Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), often called "tapping," is a form of alternative therapy that involves tapping on specific meridian points on the body while focusing on emotional issues, stress, or physical pain to release negative emotions and promote healing.
EFT is based on the idea that emotional and physical issues are linked to energy imbalances in the body. By tapping on meridian points (similar to acupuncture points) while thinking about specific problems or emotions, EFT aims to rebalance the body's energy and reduce emotional distress.
EFT can be used for a variety of issues, including anxiety, stress, depression, phobias, trauma (including PTSD), chronic pain, weight loss, addictions, and improving performance in work, sports, or personal life.
While EFT has anecdotal success and some studies suggest benefits, it is considered controversial in mainstream science. Some research supports its use for anxiety, PTSD, and depression, but more large-scale clinical trials are needed for definitive proof of its effectiveness.
EFT involves gently tapping with your fingertips on specific points on the body, such as the head, eyebrows, under the eyes, collarbone, and side of the hand, while focusing on a specific issue and repeating affirmations. A typical EFT sequence lasts a few minutes.
You can learn to perform EFT on your own using guides or online tutorials. However, working with a certified EFT practitioner may be helpful, especially for deep-rooted emotional issues, as they can guide you through the process more effectively.
An EFT session typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes. The length of the session may vary depending on the complexity of the issue being addressed and whether you are working with a practitioner or using EFT independently.
EFT is considered safe and non-invasive, with no known negative side effects. Some individuals may experience emotional releases, such as crying or feelings of fatigue, which are temporary and part of the healing process.
EFT focuses on tapping specific meridian points while addressing emotional or physical pain, whereas traditional therapy often involves talking through issues without physical techniques. EFT is seen as more of an energy-based therapy, while traditional therapy relies on psychological principles.
EFT is typically not covered by standard health insurance plans, as it is considered an alternative therapy. However, some complementary health plans or providers specializing in holistic care may offer coverage. It's best to check with your insurer.
